FAQs

What is the significance of the "wear-away" feature?

The "wear-away" feature means the outer layer of the shoe's upper is designed to rub off with use, revealing a hidden layer of gold underneath. This creates a unique, evolving aesthetic that tells a story of the shoe's journey and is inspired by the aging of classic cars.

How do I know if I'm getting the right size?

It is recommended to consult Nike's official sizing chart. For SB Dunks, some users prefer to go half a size up for a more comfortable fit, especially if planning to skate in them.

What inspired the design of these sneakers?

The design is a collaboration between Nike SB pro rider Ishod Wair and L.A.-based automotive enthusiast Magnus Walker. It draws inspiration from Walker's "Urban Outlaw" film and specific German sports cars, influencing the color palette, graphics, and materials.

Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?

Yes, as Nike SB Dunks, they are engineered with skateboarding in mind, featuring durable construction, supportive cushioning, and a grippy outsole designed for skate performance.

What is the original retail price?

The Nike SB Dunk High Pro Ishod Wair x Magnus Walker originally retailed for $120 USD.

Can the wear-away effect be reversed?

No, the wear-away effect is permanent and is part of the shoe's design. Once the outer layer wears off, the gold layer underneath is exposed.

Troubleshooting

Uneven wear on the upper

The wear-away effect is natural and can vary. Consistent wear in specific areas will naturally lead to unevenness. This is part of the shoe's unique aging process.

Difficulty cleaning the wear-away material

Use a dry or very lightly damp soft cloth. Avoid soaking the material. If persistent dirt is present, a specialized sneaker cleaner for leather and canvas might be used sparingly, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Gold layer appearing too quickly or too slowly

The rate at which the gold layer appears depends entirely on usage. Frequent wear will accelerate it, while infrequent wear will slow it down. This is an inherent characteristic of the design.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique and evolving design due to the wear-away upper.
  • Rich storytelling and inspiration drawn from car culture.
  • High-quality materials and Nike SB's reputable construction.
  • Distinctive visual elements like the plaid lining and Union Jack embroidery.
  • A standout piece for collectors and fans of the collaborators.

Cons

  • The wear-away feature means the shoe's appearance changes significantly over time.
  • May be considered a collector's item rather than a daily beater for some.
  • Specific sizing might be limited due to its special-edition nature.
  • The bold design elements might not suit minimalist preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require minimal setup beyond lacing them up. They are compatible with most standard sock types.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the canvas and leather, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this could affect the wear-away material prematurely.
  2. Tartan Lining: Spot clean the interior lining with a damp cloth if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.
  3. Soles: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
  4. Wear-Away Feature: Embrace the natural wear and tear. The intended gold layer will appear through use; do not attempt to force this process or use abrasive cleaners to speed it up, as it can damage the material.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and direct sunlight, which can alter the material over time.
